Anything you can do to save an eggbound clownfish?

[The Opinionated Reefer]

I think my clownfish is eggbound. It used to lay regularly, one of my dwarf angles has decided to steal its little plant pot home so it seems to not want to lay its eggs as there is nowhere else really that is not out in the open. Its now kinda laying on its side in little impression in the sand looking unwell. Its belly is swollen and the ovipositor thing is out but it won't lay. Is there anything I can do about this?

Plant a couple of more pots OR isolate the fish trying to take over pot allowing clown to do its thing

The issue is that my red stripped dwarf angle wants the same home as the clowns and its bigger and more aggressive and won't let them be. It keeps investigating and chasing the clowns out of their spot. No other tanks big enough to isolate them. I set up other dens but the clowns just ignore it and want that one.
